Gary Connery's Wingsuit Landing in Boxes
skydiverek replied to Birdman_Mike's topic in Wing Suit Flying
Use "Hide My IP" software if vidoe is not playing. Better quality here: http://go.sky.com/vod/content/Home/content/videoId/eefdd9d2c3e5f110VgnVCM1000001f5012ac________/content/detachedLiveTv.do -

How do riser length get measured
skydiverek replied to daleskydive's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
Some manufacturers measure webbing only, and few measure webbing AND a metal ring. Do a DZ.com search or write SunPath. -

Some helmets have removable paddings (pads). One can install smaller (thinner) pads.

Stuffing the outer 4 cells on both sides into the center cell Q
skydiverek replied to skydiverek's topic in Gear and Rigging
That's one reason this idea went out of style a decade or so ago. Another reason is that it can damage the canopy. How exactly? -
Stuffing the outer 4 cells on both sides into the center cell Q
skydiverek replied to skydiverek's topic in Gear and Rigging
Why have you done it? You don't need that with Spectre at all. I know. I was just curious -
Stuffing the outer 4 cells on both sides into the center cell Q
skydiverek replied to skydiverek's topic in Gear and Rigging
Well, I tried this today on my Spectre 190, and got massive line twists. My theory is that probably left or right (three) cells got out of the center cell first, causing the uneven canopy inflation. -
It does not say so in the latest "Cypres 1" manual. Must have been edited out. I was lookng for that too, and could not find that.

Stuffing the outer 4 cells on both sides into the center cell Q
skydiverek replied to skydiverek's topic in Gear and Rigging
When people say: "I stuff the outer 4 cells on both sides into the center cell." What deos it mean? Into, meaning physically into the cell's 'hole' and touching center cell's interior, OR 'into' meaning 'towards' the center cell, and resting them just next to the center cell (touching center cell's exterior)? -

But Collins Lanyard may be patended on "function" as well, rather than only on "physical design".
-
The Collins Lanyard is patented: http://www.google.com/patents?hl=en&lr=&vid=USPAT6056242&id=uj0DAAAAEBAJ&oi=fnd&dq=collins+lanyard+patent&printsec=abstract#v=onepage&q&f=false This is what I meant in the first place...

You are mistaken, the United States is not overseas. 'Overocenas', then? You are overseas from me, arn't you?

Human Flight 3D Movie ... IMAX
skydiverek replied to joaocorreia's topic in General Skydiving Discussions
The delay was over some financial issues. I am afraid this movie will be "obsolete" before it starts playing... -
I learn from mistakes made in overseas countries, like United States.
